Lifes Like That

As you can see on this blog, my Alexa rank is climbing. Well, that’s not a good thing. So I’ve decided to give this blog a little makeover. Not only am I going to look for a different template for it, but I have decided to do less paid posts such as natural acne treatment as well. I’m hoping these efforts will pay off and my blog will become a little more popular once again. I guess I got into a rut and am having a hard time getting out of it. So over the next few days, you may see some changes that will help to make this blog a little more enjoyable to read.

Well it’s official. I have been a blogger now for about three years. Wow, I really can’t believe where all the time has gone. I have learned so much over the past three years that I’m quite proud of myself. I now know everything about HTML and how to insert links such as Eagle Creek luggage. I have learned how to set up word-press blogs and how to upload images and other stuff. Three years ago I could barely turn on my computer, so I really do think I’ve come a long way. Certainly I have a long way to go yet, but I’m pretty sure over the next three years I will learn just as much as in the previous years. Isn’t the Internet amazing???

Finally I am starting to see some movement on my Alexa rank. For the past few months it has been pretty high and it didn’t seem to matter what effort I put forth, I could not seem to get it to go down. Although it’s still pretty high, it has started to go down. So I am happy with this move. I have been doing a lot of networking (and have the dark circles around eyes to prove it) and it’s finally starting to pay off. I still have a long way to go to get it down to the numbers that I would like to see. But at least it’s a start.

Well as you can all tell, I’m back!! For the past few months I just couldn’t seem to get my blogging together. I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been doing this for three years now and just got bored or if it’s because I have so many blogs, I just started to get overwhelmed. Well, whatever the problem was, it seems to have gone away. I have my passion back for blogging. Yay! Now all I have to do is come up with the fun and interesting topics that I think you folks may like to read about. But I think the dry spell is definitely over.

Now with both kids back to school, I have had a lot more time to myself these days. I have been able to get so much done around the house and have also been able to start spending a lot more time on the Internet as well. So I’m thinking if this trend continues, I will be able to get back into blogging a little more heavily over the next few months. This really does please me as I have really missed my blogging activities over the summer.

So… if you see me around more often in the future, now you know why. It actually does amaze me at how much more I can get accomplished when I don’t have two little people underfoot and fighting all day every day.

Lately I have been pretty slack when it comes to updating my blogs. But, not any more. I have a renewed energy when it comes to updating my blogs. I have been posting a lot more regularly on my blogs than in the past and over the next couple of days I plan on cleaning up the blogs looks themselves. Normally I get in a little funk when it comes to blogging and that is what happened to me last month.

But, I’m back on track with a renewed vengeance. And, you will see me a whole lot more over the next few weeks. Man, it’s great to be out of my funk!

So as you can see, I really haven’t been posting that much lately. This is because I have been working a lot outside of the home lately and also because I have been slowly building up a home transcription career. So far I have one private client and have been accepted to work for a company as well. Then last night I received an invitation to test for another company as well. So, I have been working pretty steadily doing transcription. It seems like (for now) I really don’t have the time to be able to manage both transcription and blogging. But, I’m hoping that when I finally find my correct groove, I will be able to manage both. So, bare with me, I do plan on posting more. It’s just taking me a little longer to find my way than I had originally thought it would.

Yes, it’s been a while since I’ve posted in here. Well I warned you all up front that this may happen.

Early last week I got my very first general transcription contract and yes, it took me six days to complete it. So, I have been spending ALL my free time working on that contract. But since I’m posting in here now, that means that I was finally able to complete it. Right now I don’t have any more contracts lined up (I do have one, but I’m still on the waiting list for them) so I should be posting in here more often.

So, if you’ve been wondering where I’ve been and what I’ve been up to… Well, now you know.

Now I’ve had this happen before when I was talking to someone, but never has it happened to me when I was creating a blog post. Well earlier, I was thinking of a post (not this one) that I wanted to do. I started typing it up and then the phone rang. I talked to my friend for a little while (yeah, thanks Sharla) and when I went back on my computer, I had no clue what I was typing or even why this particular topic had struck my fancy. So I closed the window and decided to tell you all about my absentmindedness. I’m sure it will come to me what I was wanting to type, I just hope it doesn’t jump out at me during the night. Has this ever happened to you?

I have a problem. For almost a week now I have been trying to start up a new blog. I have decided on a name and have even set up the blog through my Hostgator account. I have even paid the domain registration fee as well. Well, I have a problem. Although the blogs name is indeed listed in my cpanel this particular blog gets a 404 error when I click on the link. I was told I needed to change my name servers and I did this as well. But…I still can’t get this blog up and running.

Any ideas?? Anyone??
